“I want…” Her breathing was labored, fighting head against heart. “Say it.” “You.”
“You are beautiful, Tauria. I want—I need you to be mine. And in return, I vow to protect you with everything I am. No matter the cost.”
“A mate is a match of the power we have within. It’s not always felt in the heart.”
“I’ve often wondered if we’re all born cursed to desire what doesn’t come so easily. To long for what is always just out of reach.”
“I’m constantly wondering if I admire you or fear you for your outspokenness, Marlowe,”
“A promise is only hollow words when actions don’t hold true.
“You will make a gracious queen, Tauria Stagknight. One who will reclaim and restore what was taken.”
“You have never been my ward. Or my subject. Or my princess. You are my equal, Tauria. In every way, you shine brighter than the moon I’ve watched change in the sky since you left, knowing it was the one thing we could look upon all the same. Is that pitiful of me?”
“You’re the war I’ve fought for over a century. One I can’t ever win.”
“I’ll love you forever, Tauria. We’ll have many centuries for me to show you in this life, but beyond, I’ll find you. I’ll follow you. Always. Tell me you’ll have me. Against all we’ve faced and all I’ve done, tell me you want that life.”
